North Bay, ON adds flexibility to public transit with dynamic dispatching pilot
North Bay, ON Dynamic Dispatching Transit Pilot
In Progress
North Bay and Via introduced the myRide NBT Dynamic Dispatching app for the one-year pilot. Transit riders request pickup and drop-off locations and track their buses on the app. Via's software bundles multiple trip requests for each bus for more efficient use of transit vehicles than fixed routes. City officials selected evening hours six days a week and daytime hours on Sunday to test the system during low ridership periods.
